Female cops in England went undercover as joggers, wearing tight-fitting clothes in a bid to elicit catcalls — and then arrested some of the men who hit on them, according to a report.

The Surrey Police Department created a trial task force, which lasted about a month, and led to 18 arrests for offenses like sexual assault, harassment, and theft, The Telegraph reported.

“We get catcalled. We get honked at. People slow down just to stare — or lean out the window to shout something. It’s so common, but it’s harassment and it needs to be recognized as such,” Officer Abby Hayward told the Telegraph.

“This behavior is either a precursor to something more serious — or it’s ignorance and it’s fixable,”

I just hope that
no one made MEMES
about any politicians
over there

Of course the REAL PROBLEM
is importing the 3rd world
but they’re not allowed to
protest any of THAT

It’s like having Democrat
Nazis in charge of things

Those two girls must be the most attractive cops in England.

This is more than absurd, it is truly Orwellian and oppressive of men, and a farther confirmation that in modern times the female and government are parts of an organism.

But....and also.....
By now there have probably been enough arrests that someone has noticed racism in the arrests made, I don’t see how the race people will let this go on for long.

George Orwell warned French visitors to England to be careful in the public loo not to catch the eye of an undercover police inspector. Back in the day detectives (nice work, Sherlock) would lurk in public toilets, and if they thought anyone was there to socialize, would arrest them.

There actually was a problem in Massachusetts with a public toilet on State Route 3, that was used as a trysting place by that set (only the men’s room). It got to the point that a family with young boys couldn’t use the place. In Gary Studds old district, of course.

Apparently entrapment is not a thing across the pond.

Marc Steyn calls the British police wonkers. They are notoriously evil/stupid.

This is to entrap Brits, not muzzies. Muzzies now rule the UK.

"Marc Steyn calls the British police wonkers. They are notoriously evil/stupid."

Steyn's outlook on Britain's future has gotten extremely grim. He argues:

1. A civil war in England is now inevitable.

2. All of the side effects of massive third world immigration are intended.

You can read them for yourself here:

Britain On The Brink

Keeping It Simple

He ends the second piece with the following:

"Precisely why they want it to happen is a subtler question we shall address in the days ahead.

I am keeping an eye out for the next installment.

It’s certainly entrapment in this country.

I have an idea for a “jogging outfit”, try shorts and a t-shirt, works fine for me. What is the purpose of the crotch-exposing transparent tights? To get stared at and then shame the men whose brains have be wired to chase women for 50 million years.

There was an article on entrapment as a tool for the police on this forum recently. I was pretty much middle of the road on the issue, as it is used in this case I would say I am against entrapment.

Hi

I see

It’s amazing how western societies have become so disinterested in their futures

My first thought.
My guess is this is how the Cincinnati mob beat down started.
Hood rats cat calling Holly. White guy to buzzed to worry he was outnumbered.

joggers, wearing tight-fitting clothes

Pretty sure everyone, not just joggers, are wearing leggings etc these days.
